DID THAT GASOL TRADE SEEM FAMILIAR SOMEHOW!?

EX-CELTICS GM CHRIS WALLACE PULLS OFF ONE OF THE WORST TRADES EVER

I thought something was off when I heard that the Grizzlies had traded Pau Gasol for Kwame Brown. Then, it hit me. That might be worse than signing a fat alcoholic to a max deal, or drafting athletic shooting guards in the first round. Yes, yes, the I remembered that the team I pay attention to the least in the NBA- the Memphis Grizzlies- had the wisdom and foresight to sign Chris Wallace as their GM.

Here's the breakdown-

Grizzlies Get
Kwame Brown,
Javaris Crittendon
Two first round picks

Lakers Get
Pau

So, the Grizzlies have replaced their All-Star caliber power forward with a cake smasher making almost $10 mil. They also get a third string point guard (handy that they just bought out Mighty Mouse!). Oh, they also got two first rounders- and I can tell you that those are going to be LATE first rounders.

The kicker in this trade, however, is that Wallace then pulled the trigger on the blockbuster Stromile-Swift-for-Eggplant-Shaped-Collins-Twin trade soon afterwards. Unbelievable! These moves are historic even by Chris Wallace standards...

Then I read this article- the owner of the Grizzlies said that HE is the one that pulled the trigger! It is all becoming clear. Chris Wallace is Obi-Wan. Michael Heisley is Darth Vader. There's no telling how far he will go...Source URL: http://ledger-heath.blogspot.com/2008/02/did-that-gasol-trade-seem-familiar.html
